So confused by my vitamins!!!

I got the sleeve and I’ve been doing pretty well with my vitamins. Calcium in the morning, two hours later a multivitamin with my iron in it, two hours later another vitamin with iron in it, and two hours later my last calcium pill. Now I’m reading on these forums that you can take both multivitamins together??? Is that true? Thanks for any help. And yes I’ll call my doctor, just getting your thoughts as all doctors say different things!

    I take one multi with breakfast and one with dinner. I’m not sure if it makes a difference regarding absorption but it’s just how I prefer it.

  • I was told to do it the same way as you to split them out. BUT, I have a hard time remembering to do that. So is there a reason we can't take both at the same time? Like 2 vitamins and then the 2 c

I've been told to split my multi w/ iron up for better absorption, as well as to never take the multi w/ iron with calcium citrate because it would cause issues with absorption.
